The Sapphire HD4850 on my light gaming box died yesterday and I'm looking for a (preferably inexpensive) replacement. I haven't followed the hardware scene since I built the rig a year ago, so I'm not sure what line of current GPU's I want to be looking at. By modern gaming standards, this box doesn't do any heavy work - I occasionally fire up some older games like Civ 4 or Oblivion on my impressive 19" 1280x1024 display. I'd like to play Civ5 when it comes out in the fall, but I don't play FPS's or anything really strenuous. Any suggestions for a decent, preferably sub-$100 card that I could drop in as a replacement?
